Pink Panther Pitaya

Happy December 1st! So for my one of healthy snacks today, I had this incredible pitaya bowl! What I love most about these are they're  dairy free, so its made with coconut milk. It also has strawberry, banana, and mango! My favorite! Anyway, I have to go get ready! I'm going to the Kings game tonight against Vancouver. I have a feeling we're going to win! There is a USC/UCLA hockey game that starts right after the Kings game ends, really excited for that ! Go Kings Go and Fight On!

Shortbread

Hello ! Well, heres another Monday! Work work work! aha, over the weekend I made these delicious flaky shortbread cookies. I love to eat them with different kinds of jam! Even though I eat really healthy sometimes you just have to enjoy some sweet little treats every now and then. I have so many orders for the restaurant this weekend, so I have to get back in the kitchen. Maybe, tomorrow I'll have a little workout video or some pics to help you start getting your winter bod in shape ;) Talk to you later!
